I've also got a problem with a USB harddrive. Wehn plugged in, the icon will not
show in My Computers but, I can use the Nero Backup application to write to it and
it shows up in the hardware manager and when I click the USB stop it also shows up.
I've looked at the threads and thought about the High Filters solution proposed
but when I plug in my MP3/flash drive, it comes up on the My Computer directory,
the Hardware Manager adn USB stop all as E: drive and the HD then moves from E: to
F: but still not seen as an icon. When I go through the Hardware Manager properies
and pull the drive up it is showing about 1/4th of teh drive used which I calculate
it should based on the backups so it seems to be working that way. On my other XP
laptop when I plugged it in it showed up as expected to it seems to be an OS issue.
Any ideas?
